  3. Fast & easy transaction. Packaged extremely well with a KJV Bible from the same $1.00 sale. Both books arrived in excellent used condition. Better than described. Overall, the two books are an outstanding value and replace a travelling/hospital visitation set I lost many years ago. Communications with the seller were outstanding, she was a true pleasure to do business with and I will watch for future offerings from her. AAAAA+++++
